Wondering which part of the instructions I should follow for this.

I'm getting confused when it gets to the jumpers...The IGBT is also starting to confuse me, along with the hi/low circuits...

The rest of my planned setup is GM TBI with whatever GM sensors I need to run, which I thought I needed the MAP sensor from the GM donor but the MS2 v3 came with a MAP? I'm fairly sure I didn't order it with the mapdaddy 4, but this is installed on the bottom of the PCB...Also this is all on a '65 Rambler with a 287cid V8...(if this helps with how I need to set up my MS2)

I did not intend on controlling the ignition with the MS, just picking up a signal from the distributor to run the TBI, tho the instructions seemed to lead me to set it up for ignition control or did I mis-read and re-mis-read? I would use the MS to control the ignition if its possible with the setup I have if it will give me better road manners along with better fuel economy.

I have tested the power supply and all is well, waiting on a 9pin to USB cable and getting my laptop setup with all the software to use with the MS. So bench testing is out for a few days.

Set the MS2 up for fuel only and trigger off the coil negative terminal.

The MS2 will have a built in MAP sensor.

Awesome! Thank you for the reply, I guess I got some back tracking to do and set it up for neg. trigger...

Also I'm wanting to stay away from the Innovate controller and have looked and searched for many others, I'm leaning towards: http://www.betterpartx.com/bpsx_digital ... re_display I haven't found anything bad, but I have not found many using it. Am I still on the right track to running Wideband or should I look into the more commonly used WBO2 controllers?
